WOMEN HOLD UP HALF THE SKY!

You're inside my mind!

goddamnit I write this like every time I'm posting a new blog post on here. But I'm also only 17 so I don't care. So I had a change of heart about this theme... again...well kinda. 
I actually changed the way I feel and think about stuff and I changed my state of mind mind (this is complicated). 
I feel like I tried to be the stereotypical blogger, that posts stuff about the best cupcake recipe or their favorites of the month, but that is just not really me anymore...if it ever was. 
I unfollwed most people on insta and started following people like Ella Grace Denton and Zca Zca Inci. I'm very much in love with their life style and the way they see the world.
I wanna start loving my body and in my case it's just not working to accept the way I look. I tried it over the last couple months and I started to like the features that I can not change!
But when I look in the mirror I just don't feel beautiful or really healthy. That's why I will not post any more cupcake recipes with 4 cups of sugar and shit that's not good for you, at least when you try to loose weight. And don't get me wrong, of course every size, every body and every number on the scale is okay and doesn't say anything about you and every woman is beautiful. I just wanna live healthier and make myself a beautiful new home, that is my body. So please, don't get mad at me, it's my thing that I wanna do and maybe on the road to my new ,,home" I realize that at some point my whole body is beatiful without reaching my goal. You never know. I just wanted to keep you guys updated on what my 17 year old mind is thinking at the moment, in the end you were the one that entered. xx


Oh! And there won't be any set days that I'm posting. This is actually gonna be my mind, where I can do and say what ever I feel like and where I can get in contact with you guys. We're gonna creep into each others minds. HA!

Monthly faves

LIFESTYLE🍃

Um...can you believe it's November? I feel like I just put up all my autmnal decor yesterday, and now it's almost time to replace them with christmas decor. At htis time of the month, it's time for my monthly favorites.

In beauty, I bought an eyebrow pencil recently. It has a brush at the end, and I was really exited when I bought it because it is exactly my shade. I feel like when I put it on, I look older. Not in a bad way tho.
I discovered kinda like a new look for me with it. I just leave out the mascara and instead I do my eyebrows. And that's it. I feel like eyebrows just really frame your face, and you don't really need the other stuff.


I like to experiment, and put myself up to a challenge, like going vegan, which I did last year for a month or so. Now I'm on a vegetarian challenge but I might swerve into vegan after a while. I'm trying out different sorts of food that replace the normals, I guess. I really got into the Soya and Coconut milk thing, and that is my favorite. I bought a Coconut/Chocolate Milk and it tastes delicious. Since yesterday I'm trying a new one that is Soya/Vanilla and it's tasty but not my favorite because it's too sweet for my taste.

My favorite interior are picture frames. It may sound weird but I bought them and they're just those glasses as cover and no actual frame. Idrew some pictures last week and I wanted to put them up on my wall, and because they have a kinda specific style to them I thought that a huge frame would just distract.
I bought them in a store called TIGER and they were only 1 euro!!

Music. I love music and I feel like so much new music came out this month, it's really hard to decide. I've already shared my Halloween playlist and that is basically all I've listened to this month. But my favorites from that playlist are Twin Size Matress by The Front Bottoms. I saw the quote "With tears in my eyes I begged you to stay, you said hey man I love you but now fucking way" on tumblr a lot, I loved it and found out it's that song. It's just a bonus that it's now one of my favorites. iTunes
Another facorite is the new album by 5 Seconds of Summer. It's different to the first one and you can actually hear how they've matured and how you can amazing songs when you exprerience and see the world. SGFG

Monthly faves

HALLO(ween)!! 🎃

I know I missed the last week because exam time started and I had to study. But I'm gonna catch up with my September monthly favorites now and get back into schedule. It's finally October, which is my favorite month of the year. And those Sundays are gonna be my favorite blog posts to write because of all my favorites. I looked back at my other monthly favorite and I said I can't believe it's almost September. Now I sit here in mid-October and I can't believe there are advent calendars in the store, and it's almost time for my October favorites again.

9/27:

So as usual I'm gonna start with beauty. As you may have noticed I'm not even close to being an expert in that field but I recently got into bronzer. In fall there is not much sun, at least where I live and I really missed my little tein. So I bought one and I actually really like it. I put some under my cheekbones and on my forehead.
I also got a new hand cream given to me, which is by CD. Now that your hands are dry and need extra care it leaves your hands smooth and is really affordable. And the company earns a plus because they are cruelty free, and I try as much as I can to cancel this cruelty in my live.

In fashion I rediscovered my ring collection. I store them in a little bowl I got from Hawaii and I just found the box. I'm pretty sure I have about 30 and most of them are really simple (and from H&M). But I feel like they are a great accessory that just goes with everything and you can dress them kinda up and down.
I also found a black turtleneck t-shirt. It is -again- from savers in the US but I thought it would be perfect for fall. It is not thick enough to be a jumper and the sleeves are too short, but definitely has jumper qualities.

Now, right behind fashion, food is one of the best things in October. Everything is warm and tastes like fall. It just makes the whole atmosphere a lot more cozy when you have a hot chocolate (or pumpkin spiced latte), some cookies and candles in front of you, while you sit on your couch in 200 blankets and watch a crappy movie. I didn't have time to make a autumnal cupcake recipe. But I already found one which is probably going to be another Wednesday post.

Since I'm back in Germany all my shopping trips also led me to NANU NANA, to fill up on my decor and interior. And that is where I bought 3 colorful bowls. They where only 3 Euros and they have different designs on them. One is turquoise with an orange edge. The other is light blue and orange and has an orange edge as well. The third bowl has dark blue diamond shapes and an orange edge. I also bought two little tea cups which are black and white. One with circles the other with little dashed lines. I bought three little plates from the same black and white range which I use as plats for my cacti.

The last part is music. I put up a post next Wednesday where I included my Halloween playlist where you can see what I listen to this month. So today I'm going to talk about my favorite music in September. I also have a playlist for that. I make a spotify playlist for every month and I name it after events that happened. That's how cool I am. I have one that is called back to black because someone ( I don't even remember) dyed their hair black that day, Oh and that was in June '15. In July I started a new playlist and the first song in it is Fourth of July by FOB. The Playlist is called Zummer 2015 and has about 70 songs in it. I stopped editing it on October 9th. And it's probably my favorite playlist I have. I love to compare it to my Summer playlist 2014 and than I'm always very proud to see how I went from charts to punk pop.

Nailpolish

LIFESTYLE

Hi!
So since school started I've started to use more products again. I have a few nail polishes and I'm gonna show you my favorites. Most of them are just drug store products because I think they work just as good.
The first nail polish is also the one I bought last. It's just white but I really like it 'cause you can wear it with anything. Mine is a drugstore product and after just 2 applies it's covered. (Essence 33 wild white ways)

The next nail polish I wore was a coral color in the colors pink/orange. I like it a lot because when the sun shines on it, it looks more pink and when it gets darker it turns into an orange-y color. The brush is this perfect shape that just fits the nail and you can apply it very easily. The brand is p2 and it's the edition volume gloss. The color is called 060 happy bride. 

In the second week I tried out one of those quick n' go nail polishes. Mine is from Astor and is supposed to dry in 45 seconds. I didn't count the seconds but it was extremely fast and like that it is way more fun to make your nails. It also says it has a "1 sec flash brush", I have to say it didn't took me 1 second to apply but it was okay because it dried so fast. It looks almost black but if you look closer you can see it's actually a really dark purple. I applied it twice because I thought the purple was too light but it definitely covered. I'm kinda sad they only have numbers not names but I think the new collection does have names. (Astor)

What I like

AUGUST FAVORITES 

Hey guys!

I can't believe it is almost September! I remember May like it was yesterday. Summer break was over so damn quick. Over the month I wrote down some stuff I liked using or liked in general. I thought it might be boring if I just include fashion and beauty because I'm not the biggest expert in that field so I added food, interior and songs or music.

So let's start with beauty. Because of the moving I had a loooong summer break from may 23 to September 2. I barely wore make up, not even the littlest bit mascara and my skin is just so much better. I can even rub my eyes without smugging anything which is the best feeling. Because of that I have some skin care products. 

I bought a body moisturizer from Nivea back at Walgreen's. I'm using it since November and it is absolutely amazing. It leaves your legs so soft and a big bottle is not really expensive. 

Next I found an amazing way to save money in fashion. While I lived in the US I bought a lot of stuff because everything is just so much cheaper. Of course I also went to H&M and forever 21 but the most money I spent in thrift shops and sometimes urban outfitters. I can only recommend Thrift shops because you can find some awesome treasures in there. I, for example, bought a sweater for four bucks. Back home I got curious and googled the brand and an original would have cost over 100$!! You can find loads of bargains in stores like that and you can also look online if you don't have one near you :)

Now to a very important topic of mine: food. 

I found a book on the cookbook shelf which is called 'teenager auf veggiekurs'

. It basically has some pretty simple and delicious recipes for teens. I flicked through it and came across a recipe called "zucchini burger". I tried it and it tastes absolutely amazing and is fairly easy to make (I'll share the recipe in another blog post). For people who don't like zucchini don't worry you won't really taste it. Of course you can "design" your burger like you want the zucchini part replaces the meat.

Another part I loved doing this month was to buy some interior stuff to set up my room. Of course our first stop was ikea. I bought a clothes rack because I liked the idea of showing off my flannels.. I also bought a little fake fur carpet and a mirror. But the thing that actually belongs into my favorites is a little 3 piece set of cacti which now has a place on my windowsill. In ikea there was a massive selection of them and they all looked a bit different. So if you're a cactus fan you''ll definitely find something. 

Now on to probably my favorite part of my favorites. Music.

I am so glad my taste in music changed drastically from chart music to alternative and pop punk. I just feel a lot more attached and it actually feels amazing to listen to it and just I enjoy it without having to skip every second song. I made a summer playlist on my spotify with music I enjoyed listening to over summer break. It goes from twenty one pilots to black sabbath, from Halsey to fleetwood mac. But I of course have some favorites. The first one has to be Drive by Halsey which just came out last week. It is really chilled and I actually listened to it on repeat while writing this post. When I listen to it I just wanna do a road trip in the middle of the night stare through the skylight of the car and watch the stares while the song is playing quietly in the back. 

The next one is Caries by About Wayne. A friend of mine recommended me this song with the words "they are kinda like green day". That made me check'em out immediately. As I said it goes more in the rock direction it is kind of the opposite of the first one. 

But every single time I make a playlist anyway, the first like four songs are me tryna exemplify my broad music taste and the rest are the same 7 bands.

til next time ~k80
